Rose Bowl Flea Market

The Rose Bowl flea market takes place every second Sunday of the month. It has been a ritual for us to go treasure hunting there as long as I can remember (Or as long as I have been living here - 4 years).

Antiques, mid-century furniture, victorian-era furniture, clothing, accessories, art.. and tons of knick knacks. There are over 2500 vendors after all, so it usually takes a while to browse and stroll around. I would recommend to go early - I believe it opens as early as 6am. We usually try to be there around 8.30-9am to beat the crowds (and the heat!). Bringing water and a sun hat is a good idea as well, after 10 it usually starts warming up pretty quickly in the bowl..(of which I had a little taste of today unfortunately!)

I have attached a couple of pictures, shot earlier today. The majority of them are taken by Brian, so I also have a chance to be the subject of the photograph every once in a while! (Even though I do much prefer to be behind the lens.)
